Ten days passed in a flash...
The red-eyed Yuan family is attacking crazily, and Ye Yunchen, who is desperate to survive, also officially announced his comeback, leading the Ye family army to counterattack with all their strength, all the soldiers and horses engaged in full-scale battles, and the imperial decree of Emperor Yongji has become waste paper, leaving Jinling No one in the city obeyed.
"..."
The Great Hall of the Shang Dynasty was oppressed. The civil and military loyal to the Yuan family had already left Jinling City. Now only officials from Ye and Zhao are in court. The latest military situation.
"Ah~"
Emperor Yongji leaned on the dragon chair and yawned. The officials on both sides were also drowsy. A bead curtain was pulled up on the side of the dragon platform. The empress and Yongning sat behind the curtain with big bellies and ate fruit. Tan and Qiuning stood behind them.
"Report! Five hundred miles urgent..."
A postman rushed into the hall suddenly, and a group of people instantly cheered up. All of them had sharp eyes like gamblers. The ever-changing changes on the battlefield not only involved the national destiny of the entire Kyrgyz country, but also related to their wealth and lives.
"Report!"
Emperor Yongji straightened up and waved his hand, and the postman clasped his fists and shouted: "Your Majesty! Zheng Yijian led an army to occupy Rongma County. Among them, 10,000 Jiangbei Sirius Army and 800 Shun defense epidemic soldiers recruited civilians to build epidemic prevention fortifications. Prevent the corpse poison from leaking!"
"oh?"
Emperor Yongji wondered: "Why do you prevent the epidemic in Rongma County, such a small place where birds don't lay eggs, could something go wrong?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty! Half a month ago, Zhao Wang and the Supreme Emperor faced off in Rongma, and the bet was corpse powder..."
The postman said: "The Supreme Emperor was cut off by Zhao Wang with a left arm. After being seriously injured, he dropped the poisonous powder and fled. At that time, the porcelain bottle containing the poisonous powder was broken. Zhao Wang was worried that the poisonous powder was missing on the way, so he ordered people to surround Rongma County, just in case!"
"Ha~ No wonder Prince Fudoming is a one-armed man. It turns out that King Zhao took off his arm..."
The Minister of the Ministry of Officials sneered: "Listen to me, Ye Yunchen's real name is Zhao Sihai, and he is just a warrior. He has proclaimed himself the Supreme Emperor. Not only will the court not admit it, but he will also be held accountable for impersonating the late Emperor. It's also full of chops!"
A minister waved his sleeves and said disdainfully: "Is it useful for you to say this? If you have the ability to say it in front of him, what kind of quick talk are you trying to do here?"
"I say this for His Majesty's benefit..."
The Minister of the Ministry of Officials cupped his hands and said: "If the court recognizes that Zhao Sihai is the supreme emperor, how do you let your majesty deal with it? If he brings his troops back to re-ascend the throne, your majesty will not give up the throne or not. As long as the emperor refuses to admit it for a day, he will be forever They are all grass people!"
"okay!"
Emperor Yongji waved his hand impatiently and said, "Don't gossip here, I know who Zhao Sihai is. You continue to talk about it, postman, do you have any military affairs to report?"
"Return to Your Majesty! Yuan's army has captured Xisha County, and it is currently being repaired..."
The postman clasped his fists and said: "The Wu people have sent 30,000 militiamen, and they are attacking Hu Lie's army from the west with the King of Han. At present, the battle is stalemate. There is also a Jianghu army of 100,000 people who is going to Bidong County to help Zhao Sihai and meet Yuan Ruocheng. army!"
"Jianghu army? One hundred thousand people..."
The expressions of civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty changed one after another. Even Qiu Ning and Luo Tan looked at each other in shock. Only Emperor Yongji asked excitedly: "Really? A master of a hundred thousand rivers and lakes or an ordinary villager?"
"Back to Your Majesty!"
The postman said loudly: "Zhao Sihai became the first leader of the Jianghu alliance, all the masters of the various sects came out, and each team was led by its own head. The Yuan family army stopped in Xisha County, and it was because of the Jianghu army. Fear that its strength is far superior to that of ordinary legions!"
"Hahaha… "
Emperor Yongji laughed heartily and said: "It's true that every time more dogs are slaughtered out of righteousness, the Jianghu is full of good men. There are so many brave and righteous people in my Daji Jianghu, and I still have to worry about big things."
Can't you? "
"Zhao Sihai is really insidious. He actually hid such a strange army..."
The officials of the Zhao family cursed one after another. There had never been a Jianghu army in the history of Daji, and no one knew how powerful they were. However, Yuan Laoer suddenly suspended the offensive. He was naturally worried that this Jianghu army was all masters who outnumbered ten.
"Postman!"
Emperor Yongji asked with a smile: "Is King Zhao of Shun Kingdom still in Jiangbei? Has he done anything?"
"Still in Jiangbei! But..."
The postman said with some hesitation: "Yuan Ruocheng has handed over the 100,000 Sirius Army to the commander-in-chief of King Zhao. Go and stop the Beiwei Army!"
"What did you say, King Zhao didn't stick to Gusu City..."
Qiu Ning suddenly opened the bead curtain and came out, Yong Ning also stood up in shock.
"King Zhao put a big sign on the right side of the river, which says..."
The post minister thought hard and said: "Look to the northwest, guard the four directions, lead the wolf to the left, hold the dragon to the right, shoot the tiger by yourself, look at Ye Lang, and return the body, so what? Uh~ Jin Yiwei judged from this that the king of Zhao might have made an attack !"
"Zhao Yunxuan is really a famous general of the generation. He strikes a stone with an egg and still has the mood to recite poems to fight against..."
Emperor Yongji sneered strangely and said: "The Beiwei Army has more than 200,000 horses, including the tribal cavalry who are going south to King Qin, a total of 400,000 troops are waiting for him. If he can win with 100,000 horses, I am not the emperor. Let him do it!"
"This, this, this..."
The Minister of the Ministry of Officials was surprised and said: "Gusu City can be attacked in advance and defended in retreat. With the addition of one hundred thousand Sirius troops, Gusu City can be said to be impenetrable. Why did the prince take the initiative to attack?"
"Young people! Always like to make strange and dangerous moves..."
Emperor Yongji said contemptuously: "He fought a big victory outside the pass, so he thought he was invincible, but he didn't know that it was just a third-rate miscellaneous army, and the Beiwei army was mostly strong and powerful, and its combat power was still higher than that of the frontier army. Come on, I think he's going to make a big somersault!"
"Stay soldier! Is there any news from Jiangnan Road..."
A minister hurriedly asked, and the postman replied: "My lord! The national defense army is still building anti-epidemic fortifications. The gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, headed by the Zhang family of the empress, announced yesterday that they will not stand in line, do not fight, produce and farm, and serve the court. !"
"Okay!"
Emperor Yongji looked at the queen with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Queen! Your Majesty is worthy of being a veteran of the three dynasties. He has read the books of sages and sages. He is sober and decisive in the face of national crises. He can be a pillar of the country, unlike some villains who only follow others , The book has been read into the dog's belly!"
"Your Majesty is absurd!"
The queen nodded slightly with a stern smile, but before she could finish her sentence, a deputy commander of the Dragon Guards rushed in and shouted with a pale face, "The big thing is wrong, the emperor of Shunguo died, five A few days ago, the dead body changed at the border!"
"What?"
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty exclaimed in unison, Emperor Yongji also stood up suddenly, and Yongning couldn't care less about his face, he opened the bead curtain and rushed out, asking in a hurry: "Please tell me clearly, who is it?" The corpse has changed, what happened to my grandpa?"
"Crown Princess! Your grandpa passed away..."
The deputy commander patted his thigh anxiously, Yongning rolled his eyes and almost passed out, but luckily Luo Tan hugged her, the prince also exclaimed in shock, rushed over and carried her back to the chair.
"Speak clearly..."
Emperor Yongji yelled impatiently: "Whether Emperor Shunyao was assassinated or turned into a dead body, how did he die?"
"Your Majesty! Your dead soldier..."
The other party said with a livid face: "King Zhao found out the identity of Jinyi's secret guard, and he was actually a border lieutenant of the Shun Kingdom.
The poison was poisoned in the palace, and no one in the whole palace was spared! "
"Plop~"
Emperor Yongji fell back on the dragon chair, and asked with a pale face: "Have you told Shun Guo that this matter has nothing to do with me? No orders were given to him!"
"Your Majesty! You may be innocent, but the hidden guards belong to Ye Yunchen..."
The deputy commander said fiercely: "This incident happened seven days ago. Shun Kingdom has already announced it to the world. Princess Jian Guo ascended the throne immediately and vowed to avenge their late emperor."
"What?"
Yongning ran out like an electric shock again, and said in shock: "Has my aunt ascended the throne, has she, has she become a queen, is there no objection?"
"Crown princess! I don't know if anyone objects to a humble position..."
The deputy commander cupped his hands and said: "The Seventeenth Princess of Shun Kingdom has become the first female emperor in the ages, and the first imperial decree she promulgated was to avenge the late emperor. Jin Wuming, the commander of the imperial army, led a million frontier troops to leave the customs, yesterday should be We are attacking the border of our country!"
Emperor Yongji hurriedly shouted: "Shangshu of the Ministry of War! How many soldiers are there in the frontier army, send more reinforcements!"
"Your Majesty! During the reign of the late emperor, he dispatched 150,000 Xiangbei troops to frighten the barbarians..."
The Minister of the Ministry of War said helplessly: "The 150,000 Xiangbei troops are far away from the water and can't quench their thirst. Now there are only 250,000 troops left at the border, and 100,000 Yuan's troops are stuck in their throats. Unless the Yuan's army is willing to help, otherwise they are all A lone army!"
"Your Majesty! Shun Kingdom has more than a million troops..."
The deputy commander continued: "The former crown prince of Shun Kingdom and Prince Duan personally led a navy of 500,000 to go to sea. It is said that they will go around to the mouth of the sea and land in the south of the Yangtze River. Infringe upon the common people, take off Ye Yunchen's head and leave!"
"Damn it! I already know that Zhao Yunxuan will never waste his efforts in Jiangnan..."
Emperor Yongji scolded ferociously: "The bastard has been operating in the south of the Yangtze River for so long, and he actually wants to let the soldiers of the Shun Kingdom land. From the very beginning, he has no good intentions. He came here to invade my Daji territory. I swear no two sides!"
"..."
A group of civil and military officials were dumbfounded. They thought it was just a civil war, and completely forgot that there was a Dashun Kingdom behind Zhao Guanren, and they never thought that he was ready to drag Shun Kingdom in, and it was so The name is justified.
"Your Majesty! I advise you to break up with Ye Yunchen..."
Qiu Ning cupped his hands and said, "The older members of the Yuan family let him kill them all. The younger members of the Yuan family don't care what is going on. I don't think they will fight the enemy together, but they might even attack the frontier army and open the door to follow the country." Let the army in!"
"Impossible! No matter how foolish they are, they would never do such a thing. Ji Guo Jiangshan belongs to their family..."
When Emperor Yongji said this, he had no confidence at all. Besides, although the people of Shunguo like to brag, they are always a million-dollar army, but now they are sending troops with all their strength, and there are more than 700,000 troops left after half of the water is cut off.
"Your Majesty! Fighting the enemy together means a truce, but do you think the two sides will end the war..."
Qiu Ning sneered and said: "If you don't stop fighting, you have to fight on. Ye Yunchen has sent out a team of marvelous soldiers. Wouldn't the Yuan family wait to die? At least they have a good relationship with Zhao Wang, and maybe they will be allowed to sit in the country. Or plan to rule the river!"
"His Majesty!"
The Minister of the Ministry of Officials said: "For now, the only plan is to cut off the dog's head of the false emperor, and Shunguo will calm down. At that time, you and the Yuan family will reconcile as before, and jointly resist foreign enemies. Wouldn't it be good to return to the same as before? At least you are still the emperor. Ji country is still Ji country!"
"Your Majesty! If you don't stop, you will be subject to chaos..."
Many ministers stepped forward to speak out one after another. Emperor Yongji's face was gloomy, and he stared at the ground without saying a word for a long time...
